Beautiful colorful beams are made in different glow.

That looks so wickedly awesome. ESF is going to be solid gold, I tell you.

P.S. Jason, you just had to use the most generic title name, didn't you.

I think its a slide show actually.

Maybe yes maybe no, who know. Only dev team can tell as the truth.

Apparently yes. I'd really love to have a closer look at the new Goku model, but the team hides it from us :<

I think its a slide show actually.

Dude, do you ever make sense?

 

[elcor]

look very nice done, but still is Wip
about goku i think is new model, i can see the pose of no animate model

If you were to make the model face the opposite direction, put him inside of the effect and add a comet tail, it'd be a pretty sweet swoop effect.

what does WIP stand for?

To be honest I'm afraid of you actually trolling... But I'm gonna answer it anyway: Work In Progress.

 

[Skyrider]

Wonder how it'll effect the view of such a large bream start.

 

[Deverz]

You have to use the force to guide your beam

lol yea i know, i did the swoop before this effect lol, very similarish but i will show that laters

 

[Baaja]

The screen shake is an affect being in proximity of the start blast? Looking real good as always though!

 

[Zinkon]

The bigger the powerlevel, the bigger the beam size would be cool.

 

[Grega]

The bigger the powerlevel, the bigger the beam size would be cool.

No it would not. It would become impossible to aim.

Besides thats not something our XML system can really do.

 

[Damaera]

I've gotta agree with Sky here. How do you plan on preventing the start of the beam from blocking the camera? While the effect was fancy in the Open Beta, it was huge and blocked a lot of your vision. I'm assuming the current effect is much larger than it was in the previous Open Beta, so how have you guys worked around preventing this issue? Is the minimum camera distance going to be farther away than it was in the previous versions?

 

[Grega]

Change the camera. Position it high enough to see past the beam. And revert it once it explodes.

 

[hleV]

What about making the camera controllable via WASD keys while shooting a beam. The camera could revert to its previous position after the beam explodes.

 

[Z Power]

I like hleV's suggestion. Allow us to be able to move the camera anywhere in a plane while using Beams.
